Vlogging Style: Samsung Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge Hands on Review

Hey! What's up guys! Pallab here from NothingWired.com. Today, the Samsung Galaxy S7 and hopefully the S7 will get launched. We're planning to do this launch videos slightly differently. Instead of focussing totally on the phone itself, we're trying to cover the whole launch event as well, slightly Vlogging style. So, the cab is waiting and we're just gonna cover what's there in for the S7 and the S7 Edge. Stay with us. So, the S7 was priced, I think close to about $699 and S7 Edge was $799, you would get it for $28 and $33 for a two-year contract. We do not know the price here exactly but if you translate that in India prices, I think that comes close to about 50000 for the S7 and about 55000 for the S7 Edge. We are about to enter the venue. I like this presentation style, the VR is definitely coming along. So liked the presentation. So now you know the dates, March 18th. S7 for just over INR 48000 and S7 Edge for just INR 56900. It is a steep price but of course, those are the flagships you know. We are going to the demo zone so, probably we'll have a close up look at both these devices. Also, the great news is that if you pre-order before 17th March, you get the Galaxy VR free with either of these devices. Now, when you add the cost of that, I don't know the cost but I assume that it'll be close to about 9000 Indian Rupees, when you add that cost, then things get little more interesting. So there's the demo zone. What do we have here, Galaxy S7, S7 Edge. First, we have all these accessories, so you see that wireless charger, they all support fast charging, this wireless charger, this one supports Quick Charge 2.0. So apparently about 60 per cent battery in 30 minutes, that's what they claim. These ones are dot view covers. And that's the Galaxy VR, then of course, we have seen that the Note 5 as well, keyboards. They work with both: the S7 and the S7 Edge. Some of those accessories you can see here. Let's quickly move on to the phones now. So there, as you must have seen the presentation, we get the dual SIM version but its a Hybrid SIM tray. So, if you want to use the micro SD card here, which by the way supports up to maximum 200GB, you have to for go the second SIM, there see the Nano SIM or the micro SD card. Then, I think possibly, so that's how IP68 works. The spec sheet says that you can keep it under up to 1.5 metre of water for maximum 30 minutes but more likely it'll save you from rain and probably just a splash of mud but not much. So, that's the S7, so probably can go down here [Sorry, I hope I didn't break the glass]. Apparently, it can stay there for about 30 minutes but a thing to note here is that even the spec sheet says that once it's wet you cannot use the screen of this device unlike some of the Sony Xperia devices. But I seem to be able to use the device at least the home screen is working here. But probably, it's not that wet. SO, it's partially working, you can see. That's a good news! So , it's not that the screen is totally non-responsive, I can still work something on it, I guess when it's inside water, at that time gets totally non-responsive. 
So that's the S7 and the S7 Edge, now this one is priced at just under INR 49000 and just under INR57000. This one is the bigger one of both with 5.5-inch screen. This one has a 5.1-inch screen. Now both have 2K resolution, 5MP front camera, 12MP back camera and almost all the spec sheet are same. Now, remember in India, we get the Exynos version, the Exynos 8890 chipset, both have 4GB version. This one slightly thinner than the S7, just a tad bit thinner and tad bit heavier, because of the bigger battery. This one has a 3000mAh  battery, 3600mAh battery. Let's take a close look at both the phones now.
